Answer 1

The earliest definite reference to cricket is dated Monday, 17 January 1597 (i.e., an "Old Style" Julian date which is 1598 by modern reckoning under the Gregorian calendar). It is a deposition in the records of a legal case atGuildford, Surrey, re the use of a parcel of land c.1550 and John Derrick, a coroner, testified that he had at that time played cricket on the land when he was a boy. Derrick's testimony makes clear that the sport was being played c.1550, but its true origin is a mystery. All that can be said with a fair degree of certainty is that its beginning was earlier than 1550, somewhere in south-east England within the counties of Kent, Sussex and Surrey. Unlike other games with batsmen, bowlers andfielders, such as stoolball and rounders, cricket can only be played on relatively short grass, especially as the ball was deliveredalong the ground until the 1760s. Therefore, forest clearings and land where sheep had grazed would have been suitable places to play.
